Tips for the tops:

Cnoc an t-Sabhail (15B, LR21)

Leslie Barrie: About a minute's walk from the trig point, in the direction of Dornoch Firth bridge, is an interesting inscribed stone tablet, standing upright below a peat bank, similar to stones seen on Mona Gowan and The Buck. It may have been sited as a boundary stone and sunk deeper into the peat in recent years. Anyway, a word of advice - the footpath shown on the OS map, which appears to end at a small lochan 200m SW of the summit, is relatively easy to follow in its lower reaches, but after it ends higher up in the forest begins a battle through densely planted and wind-blown trees. A more straightforward approach looks likely from the north-east at NH738828.
